For The Love of All That is Holy

Yet another horrendous biannual time change is upon us. For the love of all that is holy, make it stop. Most of America is about to endure yet another inconveniencing and pestiferous time change as we fall back an hour. If you don’t want to stay on Daylight Saving Time all year, you’re probably a Left-lining off the hedge’s Democrat. Because everyone hates each year’s two-time changes, but no one seems to agree on which time to stay on. Standard Time may be in effect for only four months a year, but that’s because progressives ruin everything and take more than their share of the year for Daylight Time. Adding daylight is a left-wing lie; daylight can only be redistributed. If we conserve anything at all, if we love anything about this country, it should be something called Standard Time. Does not Daylight Time mess with our circadian rhythms, sleep-wake cycles, and overall health? Essentially, it’s wrecking our body and mind. Think of the children! If Daylight Time was extended all year, children wouldn’t just walk to school in the dark; they might eat lunch and have recess in the pitch black of night. How can our children possibly recover from the pandemic education debacle under such conditions?

Finally, the tongue and cheek trump card: Standard Time was created by God Himself in Genesis 1. “Let there be light,” God said, but only during standard hours. Then came Satan in Genesis 3, asking Eve, “Did God really say” the clock is standard? When she moved the hands of the clock forward an hour, all of humanity fell into sin. Now stolen daylight is irrationally extended into the evening hours when only the wicked are still awake and sinning. Righteous people clearly want more light in the morning to help with Bible reading. In all seriousness, you’d think reasonable people could agree to stop the madness of changing our clocks twice a year, but there are pretty strong feelings on both sides, and that means we’re likely to be stuck with the status quo. Again, I plead: For the love of all that is holy, make it stop.
